Prosperity and Sustainability of Paddy Fields and Ecosystem International Network for Water and Ecosystem in Paddy Fields Prosperity and Sustainability of Paddy Fields and Ecosystem nd 2 Announcement INWEPF 4th Steering Meeting and Symposium July 5-7, 2007 The Emerald Hotel Bangkok, Thailand Hosted by Thailand INWEPF Committee Sponsored by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Thai National Committee on Irrigation and Drainage (THAICID) Background On March 21, 2003, the 3rd World Water Forum, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF) of Japan and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) co-organized the Ministerial Meeting on Water for Food and Agriculture. The meeting adopted the Ministerial Recommendation that addressed the three challenges, "Food security and poverty alleviation", "Sustainable water use" and "Partnership.” In order to establish an international consortium which addresses the above three challenges, MAFF of Japan has proposed to set up an International Network for Water and Ecosystem in Paddy Fields (INWEPF), and the Informal Preparatory Meeting for the establishment of INWEPF was held in February 2004 in Tokyo. Finally, the 1st INWEPF Steering Meeting was held in Tokyo, Japan, in November 2004 and followed by the 2nd meeting in Seoul, Korea. In both the meetings, TOR (Terms of Reference) and Action Plan 2004-2006 had been established. At the 3rd INWEPF Steering Meeting in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, September 2006, the membership was extended to a larger number of countries and an Action Plan for 2006-2007 was adopted together with the creation of three working groups led respectively by Malaysia, Japan and the Republic of Korea. Activities The INWEPF will provide an open platform for promoting dialogue, exchanging information and experiences, creating synergy among existing forums, strengthening capacity building, developing good practices and formulating ideas for innovative policy and management options in the field of sustainable paddy water use, conservation of environment and better governance. The strengthening of the network’s activity with the creation of three thematic working groups will increase the analytical capacity of the network as well as its production of tangible products such as guidelines and methodologies. During the symposium, the three working groups will finalize their Terms of Reference and elaborate their programmes of work. The INWEPF steering meeting will discuss and make decisions on the organization’s administration and summarize the activities for the year 2007-2008, as well as the action plan. Among the agendas to be discussed in this 4th INWEPF Steering Meeting are as the following: z Reporting of INWEPF activities during 2006-2007 (Thailand INWEPF committee) z TOR reviewing z Preparation of Strategic Action Plan 2007-2008 z Other businesses (determination of host country for the 5th INWEPF Steering Meeting) Proposed Outputs • Towards Development and Formulation of Good and Common Paddy Agriculture Practices based on common understanding and experiences amongst member countries. • Identifying challenges and obstacles contributing towards achieving increased paddy yield production combined with continual environment enhancement. • To produce standard practices (An Asian Standard Manual for Paddy Agriculture). • To identify areas for Research and Development in Paddy Agriculture. • To produce a User Friendly Manual/Guidelines (created to suit member countries condition or status) for paddy farmers to implement the standard practices formed. • To assist and make available the necessary ways to obtain Infrastructures, Financial and Consultation for Paddy Agriculture farmers. • To initiate and dynamize the three thematic groups of the network. The Steering Meeting is a managing body to make decisions on the organization’s administration and to summarize the INWEPF activities and in principal will be held once a year. For more active communication, a Virtual Meeting (VM) was open on Internet, and there will be A VM in the coming months of March to June 2007. The results of the discussion at the VM will be reported to the 4th Steering Meeting. Working Groups (WG) were set up to discuss a specific theme, and are voluntarily organized by representatives from governments and experts. The first ad-hoc WG for Conference on water for food and Ecosystem, held in the Netherlands in February 2005, prepared a paper and contributed to the conference. The ad-hoc WG was called out for WWF 4, scheduled to in Mexico, March 2006. At the 3rd Workshop and Steering Meeting, the following working groups were created: - WG 1: Multiple roles of Paddy Fields (Lead: INWEPF Malaysia; members: Malaysia, Korea, Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Japan, Egypt, India, Myanmar, FAO) - WG 2: Vision, Policy and Information Dissemination on INWEPF activities and programs (Lead: INWEPF Korea; members: Korea, Japan. Myanmar, Indonesia, Vietnam, Bangladesh, FAO) - WG 3: Monetary Assessment and Value Adding in the Multifunctional Roles of Paddy fields (Lead: INWEPF Japan; member: Pakistan, Japan, Korea, Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Bangladesh, FAO) Each WG will manage a parallel session on the second day of the Symposium Duration, Timing and Venue The INWEPF 4th Steering Meeting and Symposium “Prosperity and Sustainability of Paddy Fields and Ecosystem” will take place at the Emerald Hotel, Bangkok, Thailand.

  • DRAFT from SAPTA to SAFTA
    DRAFT From SAPTA to SAFTA: Gravity Analysis of South Asian Free Trade Seekkuwa Wasam Hirantha* Abstract South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) was established in 1985 and South Asian Preferential Trading Arrangement (SAPTA) came into existence in 1995. Four rounds of trade negotiations have already been concluded under SAPTA by 2002. SAARC countries have signed the framework agreement on South Asian Free Trade Area (SAFTA) in 2004 and SAFTA will come into effect at the start of 2006. We use the gravity model analysis to evaluate the progress of SAPTA and the prospects for SAFTA using trade data for 1996-2002. Both panel data and cross sectional data analysis have been used. Our gravity model results show that there is a significant trade creation effect under SAPTA and find no evidence of trade diversion effect with the rest of the world. This supports the proposition that further regional integration may bring about substantial benefits to SAARC region and South Asian Free Trade Area is most likely to promote intra-regional trade through further dismantling of tariff and other non-tariff barriers to trade among members. Key words: Gravity model, Regional trade agreement, Free trade, South Asia JEL classification: F15 * Department of Commerce, Faculty of Management Studies and Commerce, University of Sri Jayewardenepura, Sri Lanka, and Visiting Scholar, School of Economics, University of Nottingham, United Kingdom (Email: [email protected] , [email protected] This research is financially supported by the Association of International Education, Japan.

  • Binding Constraints to Regional Cooperation and Integration in South Asia
    BINDING CONSTRAINTS TO REGIONAL COOPERATION AND INTEGRATION IN SOUTH ASIA 1 Gilberto M. Llanto 1 Gilbert Llanto is a Senior Fellow at the Philippine Institute for Development Studies and Professorial Lecturer, National College of Public Administration and Governance, University of the Philippines. The invaluable research assistance of Lawrence Nelson C. Guevara is gratefully acknowledged. The author would like to thank Muhammad Ehsan Khan and the participants in the workshop on Regional Cooperation and Integration Issues held at the Asian Development Bank on July 13, 2010 for their comments and suggestions. This paper does not in any way reflect the official view or position of the Asian Development Bank on the topic at hand. 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY To be meaningful, economic growth must be inclusive but the challenge is how to accomplish this goal. The presence of a wide poverty divide in the midst of rapid economic growth has prompted a rethinking of growth strategies and interventions for poverty reduction. Many countries are exploring cooperation and integration at the regional and global levels in their pursuit of inclusive growth and South Asia is no exception. Policy makers in the South Asian region believe that there is a significant case for greater cooperation and integration in South Asia, which is expected to contribute to more rapid growth, poverty reduction and greater political stability for the region. Various scholars have noted South Asia as “experiencing a new economic era” today. However, although a regional cooperating body was established in the region more than 25 years ago in the form of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC), the level of integration in South Asia still remains low.
